June 10, 2005

Tropical Storm Arlene moved across the area during the afternoon and evening of June 11. The area was put under a Tropical Storm Watch at 300 AM CST on June 10, then a Tropical Storm Warning and a Hurricane Watch at 900 AM CST on June 10. The area was then put under a Hurricane Warning at 900 PM CST on June 10. The Hurricane Warning was dropped to a Tropical Storm Warning at 300 PM CST on June 11. All Tropical Warnings were dropped at 600 PM CST on June 11 as the remains of Arlene moved inland across Southwest Alabama.Arlene made landfall near Perdido Key around 130 PM CST Saturday afternoon. Arlene tracked north northwest across Southwest Alabama along a similar track that Ivan had taken a few months earlier.Some of the winds recorded across Southwest Alabama and Northwest Florida were as follows: Pensacola Regional Airport, sustained wind of 33 knots with gusts to 44 knots. Pensacola Naval Air Station, sustained wind of 29 knots with gusts to 39 knots. Destin airport, sustained winds of 30 knots with gusts to 39 knots. Eglin Air Force Base in Valpariaso , sustained wind of 30 knots with gusts to 43 knots. Hurlburt Air Force Base in Mary Esther, sustained wind of 30 knots with gusts to 40 knots. Whiting Field Naval Air Station in Milton, sustained wind of 33 knots with gusts to 47 knots. Evergreen Airport, sustained wind of 30 knots with gusts to 36 knots. Dauphin Island, sustained wind of 34 knots with a gust to 47 knots. One of the highest wind speeds was at the Navarre Fire Station with a gust of 52 knots being recorded.The lowest sea level pressures were recorded at WEAR-TV in Pensacola with 988.8 MB, Pensacola Naval Air Station 991.5 MB and at Pensacola Regional Airport with 991.9 MB.The highest 24 hour rainfall totals ending at midnight on June 11 across the area were Mobile Regional Airport with 4.52 inches, 2 miles south of Mobile Regional Airport, 5.81 inches, Alberta, AL with 4.60 inches, Pace, FL with 4.42 inches and Gulf Breeze, FL with 3.56 inches.The highest storm tides were at Pensacola Coast Guard Station with 3.9 feet, Perdido Pass with 3.7 feet and Destin with 3.3 feet.Minor beach erosion occurred from Dauphin Island in Alabama to Destin in Florida. Storm tide flooding occurred in several places on Santa Rosa Island. The high water breaches occurred at Fort Pickens in several spots and between Pensacola and Navarre Beaches.Since Arlene followed along a similar track as Ivan took only nine months earlier, trees that had been damaged by Ivan were blown down as Arlene moved inland. Trees and power lines were blown down along the track of Arlene with most of the damage near the center of the storm. Except for some trees falling onto homes, very little structural damage was reported. Only one tornado was reported and that did minor damage around Navarre. The only flooding reported was around Mobile Regional Airport where almost 3.5 inches of rain fell in a short period of time. This caused temporary street flooding around communities near the airport.

April 4, 2001

Golfball size hail was reported in Atmore and Canoe. No damage from the hail was reported. High thunderstorm winds blew several trees and power lines down just south of Atmore.
